Park Slope

Fun fact: This charming one-bedroom apartment in Park Slope, renting for $2,400/month, is located in a historic Romanesque Revival mansion built in 1888 and designed by architect C.P.H. Gilbert for Thomas Adams Jr., who invented a device to mass-produce gum and whose company debuted Chiclets. Now, back to the unit in question. It has a spacious living room, 12-foot ceilings, exposed brick, French doors that lead to the bedroom, and arched windows. Something to keep in mind: The co-op only accepts cats.
